I don't think this stuff works but so many people think it does. Why?

They think it works therefore it seems to work for them.

But is it real or fake? I mean come on...
Wishing you had a million dollars and working hard and saving are 2 different things.

They think it works therefore it seems to work for them.

I don't see how ANYONE can really think it works. Just my .02

motivational speaking works for people for one reason.. they want change..
reading a book is not going to completely change someones outlook on life but it could make a small difference in how they view certain aspects in life

lol @ thinking it "works"

I agree with that point. Someone can talk you up and get you thinking positive. I see it working that way.

If you're motivated to read the book and do all the things it suggests then you're already motivated to make the improvements in your life. Reading (or not reading) the book is just confirmation of that.

Ok so it acts like a motivator and a confirmer.
Makes sense then.

If you're motivated to read the book and do all the things it suggests then you're already motivated to make the improvements in your life. Reading (or not reading) the book is just confirmation of that.

I agree... We attract what we focus on. We tend to get out of this world what we put into it. Those who put forth no effort, don't get far, those who do, usually get more of everything.
